How long do you think that this will take to complete? I have only ever helped with minor repairs and I have to say that a job that size sounds daunting. Good luck, I hope you're happy with it manual!

Lowsaturn can do it all in an afternoon haha. That translates into human time as a weekend job with no set backs. transmission swap is about 11 hours, then the minor stuff (cables, clutch switch etc).

Hey i have heard that you can use the auto PCM with the MT. all you have to do is put a mill eliminator on the wires that would go to the auto trany sensors. From what i have heard i has better fuel mapping. Any one ever tryed this?
